Never Stop Chasing What Matters

While there are many easily attainable things or activities in life that people enjoy, all but too many give up on forming a stronger and ultimately more beneficial relationship to what they love because of the inconvenience and stress this may induce.

Whether it is a dream job, business opportunity, or the girl that seems to have gotten away, you should never give up on any opportunity that involves what you really care about.

People are creatures of habit. When a person can just give up on what they seemed to care so much about, it shows a lot about their character. One problem or mistake doesn't mean a person's dreams are worthless or impossible to reach.

It takes dedication and a strong work ethic in order to battle through these obstacles and stay on track towards a goal. If everyone were to just give up when the going got tough, the entire world would be made up of partially completed things.

While it may seem impossible at times, remember that nothing is impossible. I know this saying is cliché yet there is a truth behind it that really shows the nature of someone's attitude, courage and outlook on life.

Ideas come and go everyday. It is important to realize which things in life are worth fighting for and which are only debilitating to your true purpose.

Yes, it may be easy to say, “Eh, fuck it. I don’t need this in my life” and drop whatever it was you were working on, but if something really matters to you, you should never, ever drop it. Never stop chasing your dreams, it's what life is all about.
